Lords of the Fallen Sequel to Be Published by Epic Games, Release Date Planned for 2026

With CI Games and HexWorks’ Lords of the Fallen reboot a bona fide hit, a sequel is sure to be guaranteed. Well, it seems today, CI Games has confirmed The Lords of the Sequel even without really announcing it due to its new deal with Epic Games.

It seems CI Games and Epic Games have signed a partnership deal where Epic will be the publisher of Lords of the Fallen 2 (codenamed Project 3)! The agreement, which was signed this June 14 mentions that CI Games will retain the rights to publish and distribute the game for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.

Read on for agreement as translated by Google (via financial Polish site bankier):

(“Epic”) pursuant to which the Company grants Epic the exclusive worldwide distribution rights to the sequel of the game “Lords of the Fallen” (working title: Project 3) (the “Game”) on the PC platform for the entire product life cycle (the “Binding Term Sheet”).

The rights to the Game and the Series, including all intellectual property rights (IP), as well as the rights to publish and distribute the Game worldwide on all other platforms, including the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S platforms for which the Game is currently in development, will remain with the Company. In other respects, the Binding Term Sheet provides for standard market terms.

The game is scheduled for release in 2026.

As you can see, the sequel is confirmed to be in development for current-gen platforms, and is targeting a 2026 release window.

Earlier this year, we published a report on the supposed sequel allegedly titled “Death of the Fallen” which also had the codename Project 3. It’s said to be in development by HexWorks once again, and run on Unreal Engine 5, and is said to be “built around more ambitious gameplay options for wider audience appeal.”

Since the LOTF sequel will be published by Epic Games, don’t expect it on Steam anytime soon.

We’ve reached out to CI Games about the story and will update the article if we hear anything back.

Lords of the Fallen was released back in October 2023, and has since gotten loads of game updates, new features and more. To date, it’s still getting bug fixes, improvements and even new content, which we’re hoping will be the same with its sequel.
